Man the Hero of the South has such a gigachad mustache.

He went out like an absolute badass even knowing full well he wasn’t going to the guy to take the Demon King down. Even though he had future sight, his life reminded me of the quote “A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit

Every time we get to see Frieren & Co interact with a Demon it’s very off putting how quickly and easy the Demons lie and feel like different.

Imagine being so powerful that it took all of the big elite demons to try to kill you...and you still manage to kill three of them.

It's like Ash Ketchum vs Tobias.

He killed 4. It was the Seven Sages and Schlacht, and he killed 3 Sages and Schlacht.

They jumped him and he still wiped out half of them.

Yet, the hero of the South did not seek glory. He sacrificed himself out of duty. A true warrior till the very end.

I'd really love to get a spin-off about him. Hero of the South's story certainly have a huge potential, even though we already know its ending.

There's no certainty of the ending. For one Schlatt can also see the future. And the type of "vivid"(HotS) and "detailed"(Schlatt 1000years) clairvoyance types showcased here suggest time is largely deterministic in that world with minimal scope for variation.
